Good tour Carmen very pleasant and kind, took us to the old city to tour the tourist centers of interest. The bus was full of Chileans, only 2 Bolivian friends, we had a great time, you can't miss this activity, it is very good to do it even the first day because if you want you can repeat somewhere later being alone

it was good, however i would have liked to have more photo shoot opportunities on the way there as the bus does not stop except for a quick coffee on top of the hill

Amazing tour to get-to-know Montevideo and it’s main spots! 100% recommended.
